Raise the Roof

That's what we did at the Puyallup :-)
Every year, we go "Do the Puyallup" ~ now officially the WA State Fair.
Every couple years, we see a concert and this year it was a great one!
Jeremy Camp, Tenth Avenue North, Kutless and Jars of Clay.
Alli has begging to see Jeremy Camp in concert since I went back in 2010 so this was her year!
She was so excited and loved having a special date with Mommy and Daddy
{the boys had a very special evening with Ducky Gramma and Papa}
When we got to the Fair, some very nice folks gave us their ride bracelets so G and Alli had a blast on the rides ~ Alli has definitely gotten over any fears she used to have and had so much fun!!!
Of course, we had to enjoy some yummy fair food ~ Krusty Pups, scones and cotton candy.
Alli couldn't believe she got to eat the whole cotton candy cone ~ we couldn't believe she did it!!!
After riding tons of rides and feeling full, it was time for the concert to begin.
Little girl did so great, though did wear gloves on her ears for a bit because it was loud ;-)
Alli was having such a great time and so into it, G turned to me and said "she's really fun to have here!"
I couldn't have agreed more!!!
She was signing along and dancing up a storm but really wanted to know when Jeremy Camp would be on.
He was the headliner so of course he went last.
During Tenth Avenue North, she decided she would rest for a bit to be ready for Jeremy Camp.
Poor thing was exhausted but so desperately wanted to stay.
We finally had to leave at 10:20 while Jeremy Camp was still singing but she got to hear most of it.
It was such a great night!!!

  1. I'm so glad you all had such a great time. Alli looks so happy...you all do...and we had a great time with the boys, too. Loved all the pictures! Can't wait to have Alli tell us all about her "first" concert. Such fun memories!

  2. What an awesome day, and how cool that strangers gave you those ride bracelets! We went to see Jars of Clay the following night in Portland as they are our favorite band and we wanted to see a show THEY headlined! Hope they put on a great show for you guys too.

  3. Sounds like a fun time! I used to love the Puyallup.... scones and taffy and the big white wooden rollercoaster. Loved it! Glad you had a great time!
